I have a dbgrid updating a database. Where should I validate that what is typed in the grid is sensible, a date in a date field etc TIA Lenny

I just put fname in to signify a field name, it is actually a currency field I'm formatting

Yes, I solved it wth this with adotable1 do begin TFloatField(FieldByName('fname')).DisplayFormat:='######.00'; end; Thanks for pointing me in the right direction,

I am connecting to an access database at runtime, not design time so I cant use the ide to set column parameters. This works ok, but there is no formatting on the numeric fields. How can I set it in code, TIA, Lenny

I can send mail via Outlook on a pc with Outlook installed frm VB 2005. Is it possible to do it using The webmail version of Outlook ? Cheers, Lenny

Im actually trying to add a module to a project. In vb6 you could add an existing module to a number of projects and they all used the same copy of the module. Thats what Im trying to do, but vb.Net seems to create a new copy of the module for each project.

I am trying to have a global module I can use in several projects. I have created it but when I add it to a project as a new item it creates a completely new copy of the module instead of using the existing one. Have I missed something ? Thanks, Len

Ah, now I understand. Thank you very much, Len
